I see nobody on the road,' said Alice'I only wish I had such eyes,' The King remarked in a fretful tone. 'To be able to see Nobody! And at that distance too! Why it's as much as I can do to see real people, by this light!

The words you have not said yet are taking up more space in the room than the ones you have. You can feel them in the way your attention keeps drifting to the same person during meetings, the way you edit yourself mid-sentence when their name comes up. What you want to say has weight and specific gravity, and avoiding it requires more effort than you realize you are spending. The conversation that needs to happen is already happening in the negative space around every conversation you are having instead. When you finally speak, the relief will be less about being heard and more about no longer having to carry what you have been carrying alone.
